Total enquiires data was right skewed and I have attempted to transform the data with log scale. After transformation, we can see that the count decreases constantly as the number of total inquiries increase. Average of 5.584 inquiries are made to the loan credit profile at the time the file was pulled.
The log transfomred data shows that the number of counts decreases at a constant rate with the increase of delinquency.

After transforming the data with log, we can see that the count of debt to income ratio decreases exponentially as the ratio increase. The count jumps as the ratio reaches 10.
Average debt to income ratio is 27.6%. Maxium debt to income ratio can go as high as 1001% which surprises me. I guess these borrowers will need to offer a very high return to the investors in order to justify the potential risk.

The stated monthly income histogram is right skewed and not suitable for further analytical purpose. With log transformation, we can see that the count of borrowers decreases geometrically as stated monthly income increases.
On the other hand, the average monthly income of borrowers is 5,608, which is not too high and correlates with the income range data.

Most of the loans initiated are of smaller size (<10000). By transforming the data with log 10, we can see a certain pattern with the data, that the count is decreasing at a constant rate as the loan original amount increases. Several spikes are observed in the histogram as we can assume that customer tends to borrow loans at a certain fixed amount (e.g. 5000, 10000, 15000, 20000, etc.)

Investment from friend is an absolute number and cannot be easily compared across different loan. A new variable indicating the percentage of investment from friend in the individual loans is thus created. With the summary statistics, we can see that friends’ investment in loans are quite low with an average of 2.98%. By log transforming the data, we can see the similar pattern again that the count decreases as percentage increases.

There are on average 80 investors in every loans. By log transforming the data, we can once again see the similar pattern that the number of investors decrease at a constant rate as investor increases.
There are 113937 line of loan data with 81 features. A number of features have been investigated in the above univariate plots and below are the preliminary observations:
Prosper rating is the feature of interest in this dataset. I would like to understand what are the factors affecting the prosper rating and how does the prosper rating
I have created another variable to understand the percentage of investment of total loan amount by applicants’ friends.
I will create a subset of data to apply GGALLY to some of the features I have mentioned above.
From the above corrplot, I can see that the below factors are having a certain relationship with the prosper score: 1. Delinquencies Last 7 Years 1. Bank card utilization 2. Trades opened last 6 months 3. Loan amount 4. Debt to income ratio 5. Monthly income
According to the box plot, the different prospoer scores have similiar range and median in delinquencies data. However with a facet bar plot, we can see that highger prosper score loan in general have way less number of delinquencies than the lower score loans.
The jitter plot shows the clear indication that a lower bank card utilization will lead to a higher prosper score. The box plot decreasing median along higher propsper score further confirm my observation.
A new variable trade_opened is created to indicate if the borrower had ever opened a new trade in the last 6 months. The bar plot indicates that applicants with higher prosper score in general has less trade opened in last 6 months.
The plot indicates that loans with larger loan amount has a higher propser score by comparing the median. However, it is unclear if the larger loan amount leads to the higher prosper score or vice versa.
Again from the jitter plot and box plot, it is clear that the debt to income ratio has a significant correlation with propser score. The lower the debt to income ratio, the higher the prosper score.
From the box plot, we can see that the median of income increases with increasing prosper score. One interesting fact is that the interquartile range of the monthly income also increases as prosper score inreases. The idea can be displayed more clearly with a jitter plot. For prosper score below 8, most of the distributions are concentrated below monthly income of 10000, as the score increases, the income figure becomes more disbursed.
Another interesting fact is that we can see strip of lines in the jitter plot. This may be due to the fact that people usually report their stated income with an approximate whole number (e.g. 10000, 11000, 12000, etc.)
The plot looks interesting to me as I originally thought all loans should have similar estimated return. On a second thought, loans with high prosper score are less likely to default and thus the company will charge the applicants a lower interest rate, and thus a lower estimated return.
I have created new variables to understand the percentage of repayment pattern of individual loans. As seen from the graph, most of the loans are repaying 100% on time.
From the box plot, there does not seem to be much correlation between the score and the percentage. The median across different scores are similar. One noticible differnece is that higher prosper score seems to have a higher 3 rd quartlie range.
However, by plotting the filled bar chart, we have a different picture showing that indeed previously 100% ontime record favours a higher prosper score.
Stated Monthly Income has a strong relationship with prosper score. This is not surprising considering a higher monthly income indicates a higher ability to pay back the loan.
On time repayment seems to be a strong factor for affecting the prosper rating decision.
The plots shows the change of estimated return and loan amount of loans of different prosper score from 2009 to 2014. One can see that the returns of different types of loans converge to similar percentage and loan amount gradually increases.
From the above plots, we can see that estimated return of loans of all income range peaked in 2011 and droped afterwards. Loan amount however increases as years progress, with the greatest income range (100,000+) experiencing the fastest growth.
After pondering around with many plots, I have decided to use three plots to look at the estimated return of the loans.
There are three observations form the graph. Firstly, median of estimated return decreases with increasing prosper score. Secondly, lower prosper score loans possess more outliers with lower return, while higher propser score loans have more outliers with higer returns. Thirdly, the interquartile range of estimated returns increases as prosper score increases from 1 to 7, and afterwards gradually decreases as prosper score increases to 11. This may indicates that loans being more risky (as indicated by lower prosper score) will generally be rewarded with a higher return in order to attract investors.
Out of the many factors, delinquency history is highly related to the loans’ propser score. According to the above graph, percentage of borrowers with delinquency history decreases with increasing prosper score. To illustrate the effect, we can see that prosper score 1 has nearly 50% of its borrowers with previous delinquent history, while pnly 13% of the prosper score 11 borrowers have such history. The said observation indicates the strong negative relationship between prosper score and delinquency history.
From the above graph, we have two intersting observations. Firstly, loans of different prosper score originally have greatly diverged estimated return. The estimated return however slowly converges and gradually arrange in accordance to the prosper score. Lower prosper score loan in general has a higher estimated return. Secondly, we can see that the loans with lowest prosper score (1, 2, 3) had the lowest, or even negative return at the start of 2010. The returns of this lower prosper score however picks up quickly and becomes the three highest estimated reutn loan starting from 2012.
This is a tough analysis to me as there are so many features. The major difficulty is that I cannot grasp the relationship between these data and I do not know how to start my analysis. And the other difficulty is that I do not know what question I should go for answering. I definitely find this data set interesting but it is very different when you have no clear objective but to explore on your own. After working on the data for a week, I start to have a better sense on where the data is going and can carry on different analysis to understand their relationhsip. ANd once you start to have a feeling over the data, you will know what question you should ask for and how you can find out the answer.
I think my best successes are to create new variables and find out their relationship with the loan prosper rating.
I would really like to dig out more variables in relation to the propser rating and my ultimate goal will be to develop a model which can predict the prosper rating. However I think I will need machine learning skill and additional information (e.g. age of applicant, more detail credit history, other spending behavior, etc.) to accomplish my goal.
